A spectrometer gives the following reading when used to measure the angle of a prism. Main scale reading : 58.5 degree Vernier scale reading : 09 divisions Given that 1 division on main scale correspods to 0.5 degree. Total divisions on the vernier scale is 30 and match with 29 divisions of the main scale. the angle of the prism from the above data:

The pitch of a screw gauge is 1mm and its cap is divided into 100 divisions. When this screw gauge is used to measure the diameter of a wire, then main scale reading is 2 mm and 58^(th) division of circular scale coincides with the main scale. There is no zero error in the screw gage. Then the diameter of the wire is

A screw gauge with a pitch of 1 mm has 100 divisions on its circular scale. What it is used to measure the diameter of a thin wire, the main scale reading is 3 mm and the circular scale reading is 45. If D is the diameter of the wire in mm, then find the value of D.

The pitch of a screw gauge is 1 mm and there are 100 divisions on the circular head. While measuring the diameter of a wire, the main scale reads 3 mm and the 55th division is in line with the base line. Find the diameter of the wire. Assume that the screw gauge is free from zero error.

In a screw guage the graduation in the circular scale consists of 100 equal divisions and 10 complete rotation of athe cap is equivalent to 5mm on the main scale . While measuring diameter of a wire with screw gauge a particular observation gives initial circular cap reading as 57 and after completing 3 complete rotation the final circular cap reading as 63 . it is observed that while proceeding from initial reading to final reading the cap reading increases. calculate the diameter of the wire from the above data.
